can you connect the Moultrie solar panel to this camers?

I do not know. I've never used solar panel. I'm sure Moultrie could answer. Sorry I could not help. lost buffalo

I am sorry but I do not know the answer. I would imagine so being a Moultrie product. What purpose would it serve them to put a product like that and not have it work. Good luck with them.

Sorry I have not purchased the solar panel but there is a hole in the side of the camera to attach DC power.

One connector goes to the solar panel, one to a battery and the other is for direct connector to another device. So unless you had a splitter from the dedicated battery lead, only one battery can be connected.

I won't be able to give the specifics of size of the plug from the solar panel to the feeder, but this female plug fits all the moultrie feeders. As long as it's a six volt moultrie feeder this panel will plug right in to it. My feeder timer shows 100% battery strenght every time I've checked it. I enclosed it inside a varmint cage to keep the coons and squirrels from chewing on the panel and wiring. I seems a little flimsy but inside the cage there is nothing to worry about.

You will need a charge controller and wiring to connect the solar panel to the charge controller and the cable from charge controller to the battery.

Yes, you can do that. Bryan has provided a good answer to this question. Also, since the panels are 12v, you are limited to the grid-tie inverter selection. You'll probably need a low voltage, high current grid-tie inverter, yet this may not be UL listed.

It could be done, but 50 watts probably wouldn't do the trick. You could tie together more than one panel, though, for more power, or use a larger panel. If you do buy solar and plan to use a lead-acid battery, spend a little more and buy a PWM controller. (Look at Sunguard controllers). It costs a little more, but you'll get more output from the same panel. Controllers are used to prevent overcharging lead acid batteries. So, in short, it can be done. I love the Instapark panels. I dropped one from my RV and replaced it with the same model. Still need to see if I can have the glass replaced. They are not fragile, though. Have fun. It's a project.

If there are only 2 (12 Volt) panels; you could put both wires in the "solar panel" connectors. For more panels I would suggest you get wire nuts. Wire nuts allow you to connect many panels together (in parallel) without any wires slipping out. The kind of wire nut is the bolt kind, a slotted screw with a nut to crimp a few wires together for a tight electrical bond. Have a thicker gage wire going from the wire nuts (+ & -) to the controller.

Yes!For Parallel - you need a pair of MC4 'Y' connectorsFor Series - just wire them together Here is a helpful link: http://www.solar-electric.com/how-to-use-mc4-connectors-cables.html/

I have 2 of the Moultrie Pro Magnum feeders .Mine are hooked up with 6 volt solar panels and I have never had a problem .Good luck and Good hunting .Thanks Bill

Yes, if you have a usb charging cable simply plug it into the solar charger and then plug it into your phone.

You can hook them up together in PARALLEL, so that the total voltage output is still 12 volts. I would wonder why you would want to? Remember that solar panels are primarily used to keep batteries charged and this panel, at max output will provide you with 12 volts at 10 amps, plenty to charge or keep a battery charged. I would spend my money and buy a bigger battery or several batteries you can hook together in parallel.

You'll need a charge controller so the connection will be: panels>controller>batteries>inverter

yes you can , Moultrie makes one for it that plugs into the bottom of the camera . but when using the external connection you have to also use an external battery pack . The one Moultrie sales is set up with the external battery pack . I built my own for both cameras ,two wild game innovation 6 volt batteries wired together to produce 12 volts from wal-mart 6 dollars each .a 75 cent connector from radio shack and 12 volt solar panel for a game feeder from Amazon 19 dollars . have had them hooked up all winter through bitter cold conditions and they have worked great !!

I could not find cable for sale that would connect the two. i purchased an extension cable for the solar panel, cut one end off and attached it to the controller.

You certainly can. Think of those big solar arrays...they are several individual panels connected in a system to provide a certain wattage of output.

You should NOT connect directly to a solar panel.... you should go thru a charge controller to regulate voltage, and to cut it off when solar panels do not generate enough current/voltage...
